SOLACE

Lately the gym has been my escape, without thought I find myself there and never do I hesitate.

Is it the stress of the day of a complex variable that looks like Greek,

Or is it the sweat drenching workout that I love to meet.

Or maybe it’s the feeling of weight being lifted from my shoulders,

With no choice as my legs tremble like a combat trodden soldier.

No! It has to be the euphoric endorphins and release of hormones,

Masqueraded in my blood stream like a vessel called cortisol.

Work can be stressful solving complex systems with infinite variables,

But it’s no match from the high I feel pushing myself to the limit, it feels so favorable.

I can feel my heart❀️ rate increase and my temperature rise, like the days thoughts flew out of my mind like the mental trauma I despise.

Well, I can tell U that it is my new safe-place and or haven,

My drained body and swollen muscles scream for it like a maven.

Can you relate to this euphoria and the feeling I describe,

Is this a manifested trained process that I have grown to confide.

    Yes, I use to work out in the gym when our children were younger. I felt more in control when I did. Now I enjoy walking outdoors it takes my mind to a happy place each time.

    That is it exactly. It takes you away and allows new thoughts and path to be channeled.
